Philosophy

The Falmouth Athletic Department believes that school athletics builds skills that will benefit student-athletes throughout their lives. High school athletics is the safest environment for students to learn to be part of a team and deal with adversity.

Interscholastic athletics provide an outstanding testing ground against strong local competition. Backed by experienced coaches and outstanding support from the town, Falmouth athletes push themselves to improve on a daily basis so they can realize their academic and athletic potential. And while winning is important, the highest measure of success is evaluating how each student improves, advocates for themselves, prepares for intense competition, and handles success and adversity.
